Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the UPW1V331MPD6TA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance: 330 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 35 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Package Configuration: Radial, Can through-hole (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.315" Dia × 0.866" Height with 0.138" lead spacing (exact match required)
• Thermal Specifications: 3000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)

The substitute part UPW1V331MPD6TD meets all these criteria and is therefore a direct parametric equivalent within the Nichicon UPW series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the UPW1V331MPD6TA and UPW1V331MPD6TD are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The UPW1V331MPD6TD is available in higher inventory (4981 Pcs) compared to the UPW1V331MPD6TA (970 Pcs), making it the preferred selection for procurement in legacy system support and repair applications. Both parts maintain the same thermal performance, voltage rating, and physical form factor required for direct board-level substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UPW1V331MPD6TD be used as a direct replacement for UPW1V331MPD6TA?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametrically identical across all electrical and mechanical specifications, including capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, physical dimensions, lead spacing, and thermal characteristics. Direct substitution is valid for through-hole PCB applications.

Q: Are there any differences in package or mounting between these parts?

A: No. Both parts use identical radial, can-style through-hole packaging with 0.138" (4.60mm) lead spacing and 0.315" diameter × 0.866" height dimensions. PCB footprints and mounting procedures are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status?

A: This designation indicates both parts are legacy components. They remain suitable for maintenance, repair, and support of existing systems but should not be selected for new product development. Equivalent modern alternatives from current product lines should be evaluated for new designs.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both UPW1V331MPD6TA and UPW1V331MPD6TD are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.

Q: What thermal performance should be expected from these capacitors?

A: Both parts are rated for 3000 hours of operation at 105°C, with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C. Ripple current handling is 646.75 mA at 120 Hz and 995 mA at 100 kHz, with impedance of 65 mOhms.
